Definition of Electrochemical series

Electrochemical series is a series of chemical elements that are arranged according to their standard electrode potential.

Elements that tend to lose electrons to their solution more than hydrogen are taken as electropositive; those that gain electrons from their solution are called electronegative in the series below hydrogen.

The series shows the order in which metals from their salts replace each other; electropositive metals replace acid hydrogen.
